Bent Notes: A Journal of My Journey in Music
A War Vet, Shania Twain’s Violinist, and a Marathoner Walk into a Bar…
It’s no joke. Here’s how this unexpected trio united in an unexpected place.
Let the Good Times Roll
There’s no doubt Chess Records is historic. But its next-door neighbor is living history.
Be a Tourist in Your Own Town
I took a weeklong staycation in Chicago. These adventures capture what I adore about my favorite city.
Play Like No One’s Listening
You never know who might show up to a blues jam. B.L.U.E.S. Etc. was no exception.
Take a Walk On the Big Stage
I learned a ton as an NCAA athlete. It’s just what I needed to tackle any big stage.
All Ears and Eyeballs On Me
My first jam was intimidating. Thank God a blue-collar buddy had my back the next go ‘round.
